Northern Fyn is flat, and these occasional mounds stand out. This one is Marhoj, or Marhofte. Translating sounds from one language to another leads to a variety of letters and little consistency. Research all variations.

The marker, we now think, means you can go on the private property and up the gully to inspect closer. We had the page of Danish road signs, see http://www.trafikken.dk/wimpdoc.asp?page=document&objno=20853#Special but that one was not on it. You go. We found somebody's website on it later, and the inside looks routine. Denmark and Sweden: neither go out of their way to direct tourists. People are friendly and helpful, but little budgeting is done to see that the places are noted and visited.

View from Sonderborg Castle

Sonderborg is off the usual tourist track: Jutland, but far out the southeastern peninsula. It is an ancient site, naval and land battles; its castle has been used, and redesigned and refurbished through the Renaissance and 19th Centuries.
